Indeed, the contract we sign is not “do I trust Google,” it is “do I trust Google in perpetuity.”

I can think of many, many outcomes wherein Google’s collected data is more valuable for uses other than “helpful”.

Well, as of right now, you can choose to delete your data, so it's not necessarily perpetual.

Of course, absent something like GDPR, it's possible in the future Google could change their minds about that.
